Otto the robot builds a spaceship in this funny and poignant Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Book. This Pre-Level 1 Ready-to-Read by New York Times bestselling author/illustrator David Milgrim is part of the award-winning, star-reviewed The Adventures of Otto series!

See Otto work. Work, work, work on a spaceship to take him home.

Since landing on Earth, Otto has made many friends, but what Otto wants most is to visit his family. Will Otto's spaceship take him up, up, up, so he can go, go, go?

Find out in this Pre-level 1 Ready-to-Read with bright illustrations and minimal text for the true emergent reader.

David Milgrim is the author and illustrator of more than twenty-five books, including the New York Times bestseller Goodnight iPad and six books about Otto and his friends. Go, Otto, Go! and See Pip Flap were named Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Books. He lives in Massachusetts with his wife and teenage son. Visit him at DavidMilgrim.com.

David Milgrim is the author and illustrator of more than twenty-five books, including the New York Times bestseller Goodnight iPad and six books about Otto and his friends. Go, Otto, Go! and See Pip Flap were named Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Books. He lives in Massachusetts with his wife and teenage son. Visit him at DavidMilgrim.com.

Almost a decade and a half after crash-landing on Earth in See Otto (2002), Milgrim's lovable robot is back and thinking about returning home. "See Otto." Readers see Otto looking at a family portrait of two adult robots and one child robot. "See Otto look at his home" reveals the robot peering through a telescope. An expansive, wordless double-page spread following shows Otto looking up at the stars, the family picture clamped in one "hand," before getting to"work, work, work" in subsequent spreads. "No, Otto, no!"readers may well protest as they watch the robot hammering and welding scrapmetal into a booster-rocket backpack, and it's clear that's what his animal pals are thinking as they bid him adieu. But although Otto goes "up, up,up," with an "uh-oh," Otto goes "down, down,down"-then left and right, and then "here" (through a desert)and "there" (past some penguins), ultimately only to get"nowhere." As in the earlier installments in the Adventures of Otto, Milgrim combines very few words arranged in easy-to-decode patterns with a perfect balance of laugh-out-loud slapstick and honest emotion-here, real pathos-for a rich, complete story readers just taking baby steps toward literacy can manage. When Otto looks up from the wreckage to see his jubilant friends and realizes he's "looking at his home" and his found family,readers will feel the complexity of his emotions. Welcome back, Otto. Glad you're here to stay. (Early reader. 4-8)

Medina's beautiful, vivid prose conjures the Colombian setting with tactile language...Juana's narration is also peppered with easy-to-figure-out Spanish words.
-The New York Times Book Review

Through this strong, adventurous, and smart female protagonist, Medina presents an extraordinary story about the many opportunities learning a new language can bring. Full-color illustrations provide excellent depictions of Juana's life in Bogotá and allow readers to connect with her character and culture. The artwork playfully interacts with dynamic text, which often arcs across the page, employs large fonts for emphasis, and smoothly incorporates Spanish words. Fans of Judy Moody and Lola Levine will absolutely love Juana. This upbeat new series for young readers is a must-buy.
-Booklist (starred review)

As both author and illustrator, Medina is able to integrate the text and illustrations in unique ways, including spreads in which Juana tells us why, for example, she strongly dislikes her school uniform or why Mami is the most important person in her life. Font design is also used creatively, such as when Medina traces the arc of a soccer ball hit hard enough to be sent "across the field." An essential selection that creates multicultural awareness, has distinguished and appealing design elements, and has a text that is the stuff of true literature.
-School Library Journal (starred review)

Both comfortably familiar (this will be an easy sell for fans of Pennypacker's Clementine, for instance) and keenly specific in its setting and characters, Juana & Lucas is much needed for the gap it fills in American children's literature, but it will be much beloved for its warmly depicted family relationships, eminently read-aloud- able high jinks, and sunny protagonist.
-Horn Book (starred review)

Told from Juana's point of view with humor and drama, using capitalized words, periods separating words for emphasis, and a good sprinkling of Spanish words throughout, the book makes clear there's a universality to Juana's story. The ink-and-watercolor cartoon-style illustrations are charming...The real gift of this book comes from presenting a different point of reference to American children who hear only stories of poverty and need coming out of South America.
-Kirkus Reviews

A Colombian girl takes on her greatest challenge-the English language-in this cheery series opener...Medina's loose, full-color cartoons and interspersed profiles of the people in Juana's life add to the overall playfulness of the story. It's an inviting look at life in Colombia, and readers will probably be struck by just how much they have in common with Juana.
-Publishers Weekly

Juana is certain to join spunky, spirited independent young girls like Judy Moody, Junie B. Jones, and Clementine as a beginning chapter book favorite character. A twist on the value of learning multiple languages from a non-American perspective is welcomed.
-School Library Connection

This delightful easy chapter book has much to recommend it: a lively and likable child narrator (entirely credible in her ambivalence about scholastic endeavors), a strong plot trajectory and quick pacing (and a page count that will pass muster with reluctant readers), and a generous number of engaging illustrations that will be in color in the finished book...Both edifying and entertaining, this solid title is a winner.
-Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

The author-illustrator grew up in Colombia and draws on fond memories to lend energy and heart to the many vignettes. Juana expands a sometimes limited view of South America.
-San Francisco Chronicle

"Juana and Lucas" is the kind of book I'd like to see a lot more of.

From School Library Journal

PreS-Gr 2—Princess Izta is the most beautiful and eligible maiden in the land. One day, a humble warrior named Popoca approaches the princess, offering her the promise of true love and fidelity instead of lavish gifts or material wealth. Izta falls in love with him, even though her father, the emperor, feels Popoca is unsuitable for his royal daughter. He agrees to allow Popoca and Izta to marry, under one condition: Popoca must defeat Jaguar Claw, the infamous ruler of a neighboring land. Popoca fights many battles and defeats Jaguar Claw. But with the help of a bribed messenger, a bitter Jaguar Claw manages to take one last stab at Popoca by tricking Izta into poisoning herself into a deep sleep. Just as he promised, Popoca stays by her side, lying next to her until, as legend has it, two volcanoes are formed: Popocatépetl, meaning smoky mountain, and Iztaccíhuatl (sleeping woman). Award-winning author/illustrator Tonatiuh successfully retells this ancient tale using his distinctive and artistic illustrations with spare but effective text. The action battle scenes will excite and captivate, while the images of Popoca kneeling beside Izta in determined wait will stir the hearts of readers. The integration of Nahuatl words (defined with a pronunciation guide in the glossary) into the narrative provides a rich opportunity to introduce and explore another facet of Aztec culture. VERDICT Use this Aztec legend to inspire readers while teaching a bit about dramatic irony; a first purchase for all folklore collections.—Natalie Braham, Denver Public Library

Review

"Using his trademark digital collage style, the author crafts brutally stunning scenes full of sharp angles using a palette of earthy, evocative colors. The text pops with incisive purpose, making every action feel monumental... Equal parts melancholic and transcendent—a genuine triumph."―Kirkus
**STARRED REVIEW**
"The appealing story, the powerful illustrations, and the celebration of the Aztec culture make this a sure thing for those looking for a story, while an extensive author’s note goes a step beyond, adding to the impact of the tale with a great deal of historical and cultural information."―

Drum Dream Girl: How One Girl’s Courage Changed Music By Ryan Swenar

Andrew Carnegie Medal

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
ATLANTA - Ryan Swenar of Dreamscape Media, LLC, producer of "Drum Dream Girl: How One Girl's Courage Changed Music" is the 2017 recipient of the Andrew Carnegie Medal for excellence in children's video. The award was announced today by the Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC), a division of the American Library Association (ALA), during the ALA Midwinter Meeting & Exhibits held Jan. 20 - 24, in Atlanta, Georgia.

Established with the support of Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Carnegie Medal honors an outstanding American video production for children released during the previous year. The award is administered by ALSC.

Adapted from Margarita Engle's book, a girl in 1930s Cuba aspires to play the drums, a privilege afforded only to boys. Based on the life of Chinese-African-Cuban Millo Castro Zaldarriaga, this story demonstrates how the power of persistence can break barriers, shatter expectations, and make one's dreams a reality.

Adriana Sananes's lyrical narration provides the foundation for this triumphant story, punctuated by the score's distinct voices of bongos, congas, and timbales. Thoughtful animation enlivens illustrator Rafael López's lush, colorful landscape, creating a joyful celebration of art, music, and self-determination.

"The pulsing rhythm of this vibrant film will inspire all viewers to pursue the passion of their heart and dance to the beat of their own drum," said Carnegie Medal Notable Children's Videos Committee Chair Joanna K. Fabicon.

Members of the 2017 Carnegie Medal/Notable Children's Videos Committee are: Joanna K. Fabicon, Los Angeles Public Library; April Whatley Bedford, Brooklyn (N.Y.) College; Amanda Y. Choi, San Jose (Calif.) Public Library; Jennifer Driscoll, Pasadena (Calif.) Public Library; Robbin Ellis Friedman, Chappaqua (N.Y.) Library; Laura A. Given, Parkview Center School, Roseville, Minn.; Jennifer Knight, North Olympic Library System, Port Angeles, Wash.; Susan H. Polos, Bedford Central School District, Mount Kisco, N.Y.; and Maegen Rose, Collegiate School, New York.

ALSC is the world's largest organization dedicated to the support and enhancement of library service to children. With a network of more than 4,000 children's and youth librarians, literature experts, publishers and educational faculty, ALSC is committed to creating a better future for children through libraries.

1242. On a dark night, travelers from across France cross paths at an inn and begin to tell stories of three children: William, an oblate on a mission from his monastery; Jacob, a Jewish boy who has fled his burning village; and Jeanne, a peasant girl who hides her prophetic visions. They are accompanied by Jeanne's loyal greyhound, Gwenforte . . . recently brought back from the dead. As the narrator collects their tales, the story of these three unlikely allies begins to come together. Their adventures take them on a chase through France to escape prejudice and persecution and save precious and holy texts from being burned. They're taken captive by knights, sit alongside a king, and save the land from a farting dragon. And as their quest drives them forward to a final showdown at Mont Saint-Michel, all will come to question if these children can perform the miracles of saints.
